Comments Thread For: Spence, Crawford Trade Heated Words - Agree on $1 Million Bet

[suffolkbull3]

can we at least see bud fight a top 5 ww first?!? as great i think bud is, he didnt impress me vs benvanidez at all and his other fight was against jeff horn. He shouldve thought long and hard about resigning with arum knowing that haymon has all the top wws in boxing. crawford is being squeezed out and i dont see haymon feeding bud and of his top guys until he knows for sure spence will beat him. maybe he waits a few years for bud to age then feeds him a danny garcia or porter if he looses to thurman again before he has spence fight him. haymon has huge plans for spence. i can see haymon have spence fight mikey which is already happening, then thurman porter winner with a few mandatories in between then finally bud when hes around 34-35 years old. the problem is i dont see spence making ww that much longer.

This this this!!! I'm not saying Crawford is not an excellent fighter. Because he is. But the fight against Benavidez didn't do him any favors. I don't care what the media says, he didn't look fantastic. He looked very average. He's very capable of competing at the highest level. But his last fight didn't make me feel Crawford is progressing. It made me feel like he needs another fight. Maybe Danny Garcia type. I think Ugas would've been a perfect step up for Crawford next at WW before he signed to fight Porter

Let's not forget the money involved. Spence is about to become the highest paid WW after the fight with Mikey. There's a lot of variables here.

But I think you're generally right. Spence has like 3 or 4 $$$ fights. Crawford only has Spence. Thurman/Porter winner, Hurd and Canelo all are real options for Errol. (Not to mention Prograis of he wins the WBSS.) If Hurd beats Charlo, I think we're getting a unified WW champ versus a unified SWW champ in 2020.

People better hope Jermell beats Hurd or we'll never see Crawford v. Spence lol

This exchange had a lot of ***els in it. Too bad there's still idiots here talking about a fighter being scared or ducking.

There's no way you can look at this and think either guy isn't comfortable with that fight.

Sadly, this is a Mayweather v. Pacquiao situation here. Two great fighters and neither guy is dodging the other guy for competitive purposes. It's all about $$$

Am I the only one who thinks it's funny that these two made separate videos to upload on their respective IG accounts? This exchange backstage was also really cordial at times. I think they both understand the financial play here. (At least based on these videos.)

Good post. I don't see anyone can say either guy is scared either. Like you said it's just too many politics in the way. Yea that was interesting both had separate videos uploaded lol

[chubuk7]

He light in the ass.

Your meant a$$ hole?

[chubuk7]

Spence no balls. How can a guy who's scared of other fighter as much as Spence is scared of Crawford be a champion? Spence fake champion and cherry picker.

BS! He is fighting Mikey 135lb! LOL

For real I agree with that too!! I wish the Crawford Spence fight will get made and then if Jermell loses to Hurd we get too see a Spence Hurd fight also!! That would be awesome!! But that sounds too good to ever happen

[chubuk7]

Anyone who thinks these two don't want to fight each other are off their trolleys.The only trouble here is Garcia may provide a much bigger test than many think with Spence which could take a little shine off....but if he does the expected so be it.Spence v T. needs to happen soon as many of these big fights are held back by fearful greedy businessmen...ie ..The Hearns.

MG is not relevant. Stop it!

[chubuk7]

When Spence has a fight scheduled Crawford calls him out.

When all the Black fighters duck u, Crawford, Thurman, and Porter called the small Mexican with balls to step up.
Spence is already a weight bully at Welterweight and fights a guy from 135 pounds.

Mikey couldn’t even KO Broner, Lipinets, or Easter. How is he going to stop Spence?

Xactly! LMAO
